MGT501 MANAGEMENT THEORY
& PRACTICE (8)
Enrolment restriction(s): Postgraduate students only
This subject examines the theory and practice of management. A number of
theoretical approaches are discussed and how each theory relates to the
practice of management is considered. As a result of adopting such an approach,
it will be appreciated that there can be a variety of understandings
surrounding organisational activities and events. These will rarely be a single
‘right way’ in responding to any organisational situation. Rather, any response
will be dependent upon the specific theoretical approach used in understanding
the situation.
